Answer:
Median
Step-by-step explanation:
The measure of center that best represents the data is median because the data is ordinal, that is it is in ranks. The first is 21, the second is 34, third is 56, fourth is 57 and fifth is 58.
Answer:
2a +2b +4
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the three sides. If x represents the length of the third side, then ...
(3a +8) +(5a +b) +x = (10a +3b +12)
Subtracting from the equation everything on the left side that is not x, we get ...
x = (10a +3b +12) -(3a +8) -(5a +b)
= a(10 -3 -5) +b(3 -1) +(12 -8)
= 2a +2b +4
The length of the third side is 2a +2b +4.
The length of the altitude is 9.5 cm.
The altitude bisects the base of the equilateral triangle (this is because the two sides emerging from the vertex are equal). This gives us a right triangle with leg 5.5 and hypotenuse 11. We use the Pythagorean theorem:
5.5² + h² = 11²
30.25 + h² = 121
Subtract 30.25 from both sides:
30.25 + h² - 30.25 = 121 - 30.25
h² = 90.75
Take the square root of both sides:
√h² = √90.75
h = 9.5
